Why is PvP so damn difficult?

[Traxit]

Torpedoes were fun and great. now they are gone because of struteny from "players who know how to pvp".

If you're speaking about the Starkiller & Sunslayer, then yes, I get why you were saying they're fun, but they were not great to the balance of the game. Ruthless tactics used by ye olde veteran PvPers which basically "missile-bended" the 20k damage load onto your ship in a near instant and without themselves getting damaged eliminated the "fun" from torpedoes.
An honorable mention are the instakill loadouts that used those torpedoes, this game doesn't need instakills unless it's clearly skill-based.

Not to mention the Starkiller which was basically a better Sidewinder.
